dagster-cloud CLI#

To define an email alert policy in code, use the notification_service.email.email_addresses key to provide a list of recipient email addresses. For example:

# alert_policies.yaml

alert_policies:
  - name: "email-alert-policy"
    description: "An alert policy to email company executives during job failure."
    tags:
      - key: "level"
        value: "critical"
    event_types:
      - "JOB_FAILURE"
    notification_service:
      email:
        email_addresses:
          - "richard.hendricks@hooli.com"
          - "nelson.bighetti@hooli.com"

Then, use the dagster-cloud CLI to set the alert policies for the deployment:

dagster-cloud deployment alert-policies sync -a /path/to/alert_policies.yaml
